 wo decades\, several spectacular results obtained\, among others\, by Dona
 ldson\, Eliashberg\, Floer\, Giroux\, Gromov\, Kronheimer-Mrowka\, Ozsvát
 h-Szabó\, Taubes and Witten generated impressive developments in low-dime
 nsional symplectic\, contact and geometric topology. Such developments int
 eracted with each other in extremely unexpected and fruitful ways\, as for
  instance in Kronheimer-Mrowka's proof of the "Property P" conjecture on k
 nots in S3: this result uses essentially Eliashberg's results about concav
 e symplectic fillings of contact structures\, but also Instanton Floer hom
 ology and Witten's conjecture concerning the relation between Donaldson an
 d Seiberg-Witten invariants.\n\nGENERAL DESCRIPTION\n\nThe format of this 
 small workshop consists of three main lecture series complemented by a sma
 ll number of talks by young scientists. The target audience of each of the
  3 lecture series is graduate students and postdocs working in areas close
  to the topics chosen by the speakers.\n\nLECTURE SERIES\n\nOne of the und
 erlying themes of the developments alluded to above consists of various ki
 nds of homology theories obtained as infinite-dimensional analogues of Mor
 se homology\, constructed using pseudo-holomorphic curves or solutions of 
 various kinds of PDE's on smooth manifolds. One of the homology theories w
 ith the largest number of applications to low-dimensional geometry and top
 ology is Ozsváth-Szabó's Heegaard Floer homology. In this workshop\, Ma
 tt Hedden will give a series of lectures describing some of those applica
 tions.\n\nUntil very recently\, all the applications of Heegaard Floer hom
 ology have been in dimensions three or four. One of the latest very intere
 sting developments is the announcement by Vincent Colin of an extension 
 of Heegaard Floer homology as a homology theory for contact manifolds of a
 rbitrary dimensions. Vincent Colin will give a series of lectures on this 
 exciting new work.\n\nLast but not least\, one of the fundamental open pro
 blems in contact topology\, i.e. the existence question for contact struct
 ures in arbitrary dimensions\, has just been solved by Borman\, Murphy and
  Eliashberg. Emmy Murphy will give a series of lectures on and around th
 is amazing result.\n\n\n \n\nSCIENTIFIC &amp\; ORGANIZING COMMITTEE\n\n\
